Forums - PC Discussion - Arma II Officially Better Looking Than Crysis?

I know Crysis and KillZone 2 received a heck of a lot of praise for their graphics, but Arma II is literally right up there with them, if not a stride ahead. The game looks stunning, simply stunning. A new trailer was released and you can view it along with some exclusive new screen captures right here at Blend Games.

It’s easy to see a new game and go “Wow that’s the best looking thing I’ve ever seen”. But then there are some games you see that will just stop you dead in your tracks because there’s just nothing else out there like it. With Arma II it whole-heartedly fits the description of the latter. In motion the game always looks like a cinematic sequence. I’m simply going to say that it’s unbelievably breathtaking.

The part with the tanks firing almost looks like HD documentary footage. I’m not sure how well the conversion process preserved the quality of the trailer here on CB, but good gosh does this trailer not disappoint. In fact, here’s a very brief and pointless screenshot comparison of Crysis and ArmaII just to show you how it looks. You can also learn more about this game by visiting the Official Arma II Website. For more gaming news and information be sure to stay tuned in with Blend Games.

Wow, looks really nice, Arma II can definitely compete with Crysis

Edit: Don't go by the pics, you definitely have to watch the video

Wow the pic look like utter rubbish but the vid was something else.

This game will be the most realistic game when it comes out.

Time for the J man to do some serious upgrading to his rig.



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

worst pictures ive ever seen the video looked amazing tho



Dear God, look at the sky.



The wikipedia page also made referrence to console versions.



Tease.

Around the Network

Yeh don't go by the pics, the second one is actually stretched and the first one is pretty dark. The video says it all.



Wow I think it might have surpassed crysis in realism. Especially considering both seem to be open world games.

one more and your a god :P



hmm... I don't know... some parts look great... other parts lack..

Dust from choppers and tanks (firing) looks undefined..

Tanks driving over grass, no tracks, looks as if they are hovering over the field (end of clip)

Turning off the sound gives you a better perspective..

"I don't trust #XboxOne & #Kinect 2.0, it's always connected" as you tweet from your smartphone - irony 0_o

The dust looks absolutely horrible, and it phased in and out of existence while moving in a chopped fashion. The tanks moving in the end also looked ridiculous for not leaving tracks or impressions in the grass and the ground.

Still, it looked great.
